What color is Sherwin Williams Green Sprout?
Sherwin Williams Green Sprout SW 7728 is a muted olive-khaki with a soft gray cast and a noticeable yellow-green undertone. Its mid-light depth keeps it from reading too dark, while the subdued saturation gives walls an earthy, weathered look rather than a crisp botanical green. In bright daylight, Green Sprout can appear more olive and lightly sun-faded; under warm lamps, its tan and yellow notes become more apparent. It suits living rooms, bedrooms, mudrooms, and painted cabinetry where a grounded neutral with a hint of color is wanted. Pair it with creamy off-whites, warm putty tones, aged brass, natural oak, linen, and matte black details.
LRV of Green Sprout
Green Sprout has an LRV of 33.87% and refers to Medium colors that reflect a lot of light. Why LRV is important?
Light Reflectance Value measures the amount of visible and usable light that reflects from a painted surface.
Simply put, the higher the LRV of a paint color, the brighter the room you will get.
The scale goes from 0% (absolute black, absorbing all light) to 100% (pure white, reflecting all light).
Act like a pro: When choosing paint with an LRV of 33.87%, pay attention to your bulbs' brightness. Light brightness is measured in lumens. The lower the paint's LRV, the higher lumen level you need. Every square foot of room needs at least 40 lumens. That means for a 200 ft2 living room you'll need about 8000 lumens of light – e.g., eight 1000 lm bulbs.
